Kelsey could not believe that after her father failed to wed her to Mr. Vernon, he had moved on to trying with Cooper instead.

He must detest her a lot to put in so much effort in trying to get rid of her.

“Dad, you were the one who told me to stay away from Cooper because you do not respect their family’s credentials. You said you would disown me if I ever had anything to do with them.”

Kelsey bluntly exposed her father's hypocrisy right in front of the members of the Lyon family.

Charlie’s face twisted into a scowl for a brief moment while he fixed a furious glare on Kelsey.

He did say that in the past.

Even now, he had a very poor impression of Cooper and his upbringing.

Furthermore, he was born a bastard.

The Lyons were not powerful either, there was a large gap separating them from the Langs.

Cooper could barely compare himself to Tyler who was born the chosen child.

However...

The Langs had now broken off the engagement with the Youngs.

There was virtually no more cha

    What she had omitted was that she would not allow her precious daughter to marry someone like Cooper who was a bastard son without prestige.Her daughter must be wed to a proper, wealthy family!The only one who should marry Cooper was Kelsey.There was no way Josephine would marry him!“Is she now? That’s strange, I remember seeing her going on a date with Cooper the other time.” Kelsey stated candidly.Everyone in the living room was stunned with silence upon hearing this.The elders of the Lyons immediately cast a suspicious look at Cooper.Megan frowned with disgust and started telling off Kelsey, “What kind of nonsense are you going about? You must have got the wrong person!”Why would her darling daughter go out with someone like Cooper of all people?Kelsey took her time recalling the tale. “I remember they were at the seaside manor together. It wasn’t just me, there were many other people present who saw them too. Or are you suggesting that everyone was mistaken as wel

    Kelsey sneaked into her father's study.Where were her documents hidden?She searched every corner of the study.Finally, she found her documents tucked inside a cabinet under the desk.Alright, mission complete!Kelsey beamed with excitement.She quickly took the documents and hid it carefully before returning to meet Tyler.Unexpectedly, she was caught red-handed by Josephine as soon as she stepped out of the study.“Sis, what were you doing in Dad's study?” Josephine asked suspiciously. She had woken up late today and happened to chance into her.Kelsey felt herself stiffening up immediately. She made up an excuse on the spot. “I just went inside to look for a book.”Josephine was curious. “What book?”A look flickered in Kelsey’s eyes. “It was this book from a long time ago, I thought it would be inside Dad's study but it turns out it wasn’t…”Josephine was still skeptical. “Does Dad put your books inside his study?”She reckoned that Kelsey had just sneaked inside the

    Cooper would likely not associate himself with Josephine ever again.However, asking for her to admit having feelings for Cooper was such a tall order.If she had admitted it, Kelsey would seize the chance to persuade her parents to let the two become engaged.“Josephine can't possibly be interested in Cooper! She was only regarding him as her future brother-in-law…” Megan noticed the shifting tides and quickly stepped into the explanation.Kelsey remarked with scorn, “Is her idea of getting along with her future brother-in-law to go on private dates with him?”Megan hastily cried out, “It had to be a misunderstanding…”Kelsey sneered sarcastically. “Are you saying that Josephine going on a date with her future brother-in-law was all just a misunderstanding?”“I…” Megan cringed. She hardly knew how to defend her stance.Kelsey suggested coyly, “I think Josephine and Cooper make a perfect match, why don’t we grant them their wish? Who knows how long they have been keeping their

    “Tyler, I got it! I got my documents!”Kelsey cheerily burrowed into the car and eagerly showed Tyler the documents she managed to obtain.A gentle look stirred in Tyler’s eyes as he reached over and took her in his arms.Kelsey looked up at him with a confused expression. “Are we still going to get engaged?”Tyler looked down and stared at her thoughtfully. “Are you sure about wanting to get engaged with me? Getting married is a big deal, there is no way you can change your mind after you go through with this.”Kelsey nodded without hesitation. “Sure!”She was sure she would never regret it.As soon as she had declared her commitment, Tyler drew himself toward her and planted a passionate kiss against her lips.Kelsey nearly had her breath drawn away.A doting look shone in Tyler’s eyes. “Let's go, we’re getting engaged!”He started the car and drove to the church.Kelsey could feel herself getting more giddy than ever.After they arrived at the church, they went through t

    Kelsey finally felt an immense wave of relief upon hearing this.Since Tyler had told her that there was nothing going on between him and Zara, she would believe him.Then, she looked at him affectionately. “Are we going somewhere to continue our date now?”Tyler gently patted her head. “I’m taking you back to my house.”“We’re going home?”Kelsey did a double take.They had finally gotten engaged. Should they not be celebrating it somewhere?Tyler noticed her disappointment and quickly coaxed her in a gentle, assuring tone. “There’s something I need to attend to in the office. Let me take you home to get some rest first, then we’ll go out for dinner together tonight.”Kelsey reluctantly nodded upon hearing this.“Alright, you need to get to work, it’s important!”Since she was engaged to him, she had to learn to be understanding and accommodating.Soon, Tyler drove back to the villa.“I’ll be off now, see you tonight!"Kelsey waved goodbye to him and prepared to step out

    Kelsey felt emotional the moment she stepped into Tyler’s house.This time, her status was different. She could now live here as the official Mrs. Lang.She trotted around the spacious and luxurious decorated living room.Today, she was in a particularly good mood.She reached for her phone and proceeded to video call Yvonne.“Kelsey, why didn't you come home last night? Where have you been? Are you okay?”Yvonne hurled a barrage of questions the moment she answered the call.Kelsey smiled radiantly. “Don't worry, Yvonne, I'm fine! I’m… I’m at Tyler's place right now!”Yvonne immediately understood what she was implying the moment she heard this.“So you’re finally with Tyler now? Sounds like he is very satisfied with the food you made for him.”Yesterday, Kelsey got up first thing in the morning to prepare a complete lunch set to bring to Tyler’s office for him to taste.She had spent the last week learning to cook from Yvonne.It seemed like her effort was not in vain.H

    They were all from Tyler.Kelsey went through each message.“Kelsey, something urgent came up and I have to fly overseas.”“I am very sorry for not spending time with you on our wedding night. I will make up for it when I return!”“I am about to board my flight, you can call your friend and ask her to keep you company.”“Make sure you sleep early, goodnight!”The text Tyler sent about him boarding the plane was from about four hours ago.It was around the time when she was dozing on the couch. She never picked up his calls nor answered his messages.She wondered if his flight had landed yet.She hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided to video call Tyler.She wanted to assure him that she was safe at home.Unexpectedly, Tyler answered the call almost immediately.He had already gotten off the plane and had gone to the hotel.The moment he saw Kelsey on his screen, a doting look filled his eyes.He would give anything to fly back home right now and take Kelsey in his

    Kelsey continued trying to contact Tyler.She had called him more than twenty times in a row by this point but he still would not pick up.The same went for the video calls.It seemed like she had truly lost contact with Tyler who was in another country.She grew increasingly restless.Although it was already past midnight, she hardly felt the urge to sleep.She stayed up because she was too worried about Tyler.She did not know how to find out about what had happened to him.Then, she suddenly thought of someone who could help her.Tyler's assistant, Shawn.He had always brought Shawn with him on every business trip.The only problem was that Kelsey did not have Shawn’s contact information.Her only resort was to go to the Lang Group in person to ask for it.However, it was already midnight. There were not going to be any employees at the building.She would at least have to wait until tomorrow morning.With this in mind, she paced back and forth anxiously in the living

    Seeing how much thought Tyler put into her birthday, Susan felt confident that Kelsey was in good hands. Kelsey was lucky to marry a man like Tyler. The family was blessed to have Tyler. “All that matters is that you’re happy.” Tyler tended to Susan’s needs with respect. “I haven’t been this happy in a long time.” Susan nodded with a delightful smile. Kelsey could tell that Susan was a lot happier today. Susan had been feeling hurt since Charlie sent her to live in a nursing home. She felt like Charlie prioritized his side piece over his mother. It had been a while since Susan smiled again.The smile on Susan’s face was infectious. Kelsey’s face beamed. Tyler smiled along too. The lounge was filled with laughter and joy. After lunch, Tyler drove Kelsey and Susan to the nursing home. Susan, being elderly, fell asleep in the car. Tyler carried Susan back to her room in the nursing home. Kelsey could see how much Tyler cared about Susan. Tyler had to leave d

    “Please… Save my baby…” With Steve walking away, Megan pinned her hope on the restaurant staff. The restaurant manager and staff had witnessed Megan insulting Tyler and Kelsey. They would not risk upsetting Tyler by helping her. The restaurant staff looked the other way and went back to their own business. Megan held her belly as resentment consumed her. Tyler’s support was the only thing helping Kelsey to take Megan down. Otherwise, Megan would still be living her life. First, Charlie threw her out. Even Steve left her. Steven beat her up, causing her to lose her baby. Megan blamed everything on Kelsey. She would make Kelsey pay. Megan vowed to get her revenge. Losing her willpower to the pain, Megan lost consciousness. It was a kind female patron who called the emergency line for Megan. …Kelsey helped Susan into the lounge on the top floor. The place was definitely remarkable. The interior was lavishly appointed, with each piece of furniture carefully

    Steve mounted Megan and punched her face left and right. Megan would hurl abuse at him at first, but her tirade quickly turned into pleading. Steve smacked Megan over two dozen times, only stopping when Megan lay limp on the floor. He turned to Tyler, his grimacing face replaced with ingratiation. “I have taught the bitch a lesson, Mr. Lang.” Stoic-faced, Tyler did not spare a glance at Steve. Steve was irrelevant to Tyler. Tyler took strides to Kelsey and grabbed her hands. He murmured in her ear, “Do you feel better now?” Kelsey looked back at Megan’s swollen face and curled her lips. “She’s not worth my time anyway.” The constant struggles with Charlie and Megan over the years had hardened Kelsey emotionally.Megan’s verbal abuse was like water off a duck’s back. Besides, Charlie had kicked Megan out of the house. Megan’s words were nothing more than a desperate cry now. Steve was no better than Charlie, and Megan had it coming. Despite his age, Steve went

    Megan widened her eyes in disbelief at Steve. “D-Did you just hit me?” The last thing Megan expected was Steve to attack her. She thought she had compromised enough by dating a man so much older.Steve had been spoiling her rotten lately, giving her everything she wanted. Megan had gotten a big head. She thought she had Steve in the bag. Yet, to her dismay, Steve assaulted her. “Bitch!” Steve made a face of disgust. “Why did you slander Ms. Young?” In Steve’s opinion, Megan was more trouble than she was worth. Steve had gone to great lengths to curry favor with Tyler. Megan had gone and insulted Tyler’s woman right in his face. To make matters worse, Steve was caught up in the mess too. Steve regretted spoiling Megan, and she had gone in over her head. Megan’s eyes welled up. “Steve…” Her lips quivered as she looked at Steve with a hurt expression. Paying her no mind, Steve was occupied with ideas to please Tyler. “She’s just an escort to me, Mr. La

    Steve felt embarrassed. He had been wanting to make Tyler’s acquaintance, but a chance to meet him was hard to come by. Now that he ran into Tyler, Steve was determined to make the most out of it. “Let me be a host to you today, Mr. Lang—” Megan cut Steve off. “Mr. Lang, you might not know this, but Kelsey’s father is facing bankruptcy. He’s deep in debt too. Kelsey and her father are just going to be your burden. Don’t let Kelsey’s seemingly innocence fool you. They are just going to leech off you. My daughter, Josephine, is a nice and sensible girl. She’s a better companion than Kelsey. I’ll be delighted to introduce you to her.” Kelsey was impressed with Megan. Even now, Megan had not given up on pushing Josephine into Tyler’s arms. In Kelsey’s past life, Megan went to lengths to matchmake Josephine and Tyler. Nevertheless, Tyler never took an interest in Josephine. Megan was just as delusional as ever. However, Kelsey had no idea that Charlie owed a lot of mon

    “She’s just a bitch.” Megan hissed through clenched teeth, her jealousy showing. She had a hunch. The sudden change in the manager’s attitude toward Kelsey was likely due to Tyler. Megan wished she had Kelsey’s luck to meet a good-looking and rich man. Steve did not believe Megan. If Kelsey was just an ordinary woman, the manager would not take her up to the exclusive top floor. That was a height Steve could never reach despite a lifetime of hard work. However, Kelsey had no plans to accept the manager’s invitation to dine on the top floor. Since Charlie would not be attending or taking Susan out of the nursing home, Kelsey had no reason to dine alone on the top floor. Kelsey was better off getting back to her new office and ordering a takeout. Her discussion with Rosette about the costume design for Adrienne’s new film would continue this afternoon.However, the manager stopped her from leaving and apologized to her frantically. “Please see it in your heart not to

    It was upsetting enough for Kelsey since Charlie managed to deceive her once more. However, Megan had to gloat. “What did I tell you? I told you Charlie can’t afford this place. He can’t even show his face because he’s expected to pay the bill.” “Oh, quit it!” Kelsey glared at Megan. To think Kelsey would give her an attitude. Megan had Steve on her side now. She was no longer the other woman who lived off Charlie’s good graces. Surely, Megan earned the right to mock Charlie. “You’re the manager. Has St. Gills lost its exclusivity? It’s a disgrace that you let just about anyone in,” Megan said sarcastically. Kelsey retaliated. “Oh, aren’t you a picture of poise, Megan? With your sugar daddy, you can’t even make it past security.” “You!” Megan looked daggers at Kelsey. Livid, Megan commanded the manager, “Throw the bitch out now before I’ll make sure your establishment ceases to operate.” The manager narrowed his eyes on Kelsey and Megan. Judging by Kelsey’s mod

    “Kelsey, what are you doing here?” Megan asked harshly.With Megan and Steve approaching, the manager drew close and welcomed them. It then dawned on Kelsey that Megan and Steve were the VIPs who took the private lounge from Charlie. The manager explained the situation, and Megan sneered. “Charlie is going broke. I doubt he can afford to dine at St. Gill’s. With his mounting debts, he’s embarrassing himself when the time comes to pay the bill.” Kelsey narrowed her eyes. Charlie must be using Susan’s birthday as a pretext to ask for more money from Tyler since the family business was going bust. However, Tyler had given Charlie a large sum of money. It was puzzling how Charlie managed to burn through it. Kelsey snapped back with a smirk. “Even so, Charlie is paying with his own money, unlike some people who can’t live a day without a sugar daddy.” Color drained from Megan’s face. Kelsey was basically calling her a gold digger. Megan would not be in this position in th

    Kelsey and Rosette discussed the specifics of auditioning for Adrienne’s new film’s costume design role.As the time neared noon, Kelsey glanced at her phone. Tyler had not replied to her text message. It was nearly time for Susan’s birthday celebration at St. Gill’s. Kelsey decided to go ahead to St. Gill’s. While on the way, she gave Charlie a call to inform that Tyler would not be available for the celebration. Charlie’s voice reflected his disappointment. “What’s this? Why can’t Tyler make it?” Kelsey bit the bullet and explained, “I haven’t been able to reach him.” “I thought Tyler adored you. Why couldn’t you get in touch with him? Did you upset him?” Charlie grilled her. Kelsey refuted, “Things have been going well for us, thanks for asking. He has an emergency today.” Her bond with Tyler could not be stronger. Heck, they nearly went all the way this morning. The nerve of her father to put her down. Charlie was furious. “I knew I couldn’t count on you.” He
